Once upon a time there was a little princess. Young and radiant, she was very much loved by her parents, until one day the queen died, and left the little princess all alone, with only her dreams to console her.
The king, still a young man, remarried, and as expected, there soon came another child, this time a baby boy. The princess felt tricked, distressed by the knowledge that her life was slowly slipping away from her. But what could she do?
Then, a dark lord, enthralled by the girl's innocence, used her naivety to trick her into his lair, promising the princess all her dreams…in exchange for her love. But in his arrogance, he had failed to notice the love she held for the babe he had stolen from her.
When they finally met at the ruins of his castle, she had no sword to wield, no shield for protection... She only had her tongue to use against him. So with words, she'd slain him.
For fifteen years, she was convinced she had overcome the demon that had lured her to the shadows of the underground…but had she really?
